on the eve of the start of his second term, president obama announced that he would spend this term at least in part on an issue commonly believed to be among the heaviest lifts in all of american politics. he said he would do something about gun violence. now the president can create certain changes by himself with his executive authority. he can make changes, not laws. he cannot change laws, but he can change things that the administration is responsible for itself. for big changes, though, for real reform, the president needs congress to pass new laws, and that's where the real political heavy lifting comes in. to do that political heavy lifting, the white house announced a new political strategy, or at least a new political tactic to try to get this done. the 2012 obama/biden reelection campaign would morph itself into an advocacy group, a powerful democratic grassroots activism machine. the old campaign would transfer to this new group its vast database of information about obama supporters, about voters. and then the new group would mobilize supporters to mobilize the president's

things would probably improve over the course of obama's term. this number calls that into question, and that's not good for the white house. they were ready to move on to some of these legacy issues. they wanted to talk about twunz. they wanted to talk about immigration. they don't want to go back and refight the fights of 2009 and 2010 all over again, so for them this is a real unwelcome distraction and for republicans it's an opportunity to poke the president m nose, which is something they enjoy doing. the question is does it change anything politically in washington, and here's why i think this is important. i don't think that it does, or at least not yet. i think we're still cruising toward the opportunity for both sides to link arms and jump over the sequester cliff on march 1 it's. i think the politics of that are getting increasingly likely as both sides say, hey, you know what, we can live with these spending cuts. we'll do it. it will be a drag on gdp, but not that much. we're prepared to have these cuts. republicans want the win, and
